It borders Puchenau  and the river Danube in the north, Wilhering  and Pasching in the west, Traun in the south and Linz in the east.
It is very close to Linz and offers a beautiful view of the Alps and therefore attracts the upper social classes for living without providing much infrastructure on its own. Due to the proximity of Linz and the good transport connection it attracts companies like Rosenbauer, Ebner Industrieofenbau, Poloplast or Neuson.
